STEPHANI SOSA ON DWTS, BAD BUNNY & REPRESENTATION | In The Slot S3 Ep. 24

In this episode, we’re joined by professional dancer Stephani Sosa. Stephani previously danced as a troupe member on Dancing With The Stars, with Bad Bunny for his halftime show, and in High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. Most recently Stephani competed on Dancing With The Stars: The Next Pro. With Stephani we discuss her relationship with her brother & co-professional dancer Ezra Sosa, representation in ballroom dance and what’s next for Stephani. Later in the episode, we get stumped while answering how long it takes a professional dancer to learn a TikTok dance, what it’s like getting feedback from judges and how professional dancers compartmentalize their relationship with their partner.
